| a computational analysis of mental image generation: evidence from functional dissociations in split-brain patients. | recent efforts to build computer simulation models of mental imagery have suggested that imagery is not a unitary phenomenon. rather, such efforts have led to a modular analysis of the image-generation process, with separate modules that can activate visual memories, inspect parts of imaged patterns, and arrange separate parts into a composite image. this idea was supported by the finding of functional dissociations between the kinds of imagery tasks that could be performed in the left and right ... | 2011 | 3161979 |
| [hepatitis b immunization--when is a booster injection necessary?]. | over 10,000 high risk individuals in the zurich area have been vaccinated against hepatitis b with 3 initial injections of 20 micrograms h-b-vax. the question arises whether, and if so when, booster injections should be given. concentrations and persistence of the protective anti-hbs antibodies of 158 successfully vaccinated individuals (medical staff, patients on hemodialysis or with renal transplants) were analyzed. the anti-hbs behaved typically in most individuals, reaching maximum levels in ... | 2011 | 3158072 |

| the impact of long-term lithium treatment on renal function and structure. | the effects of long-term lithium treatment on kidney function have been intensively studied. both retrospective and prospective functional studies have shown that prolonged lithium treatment has a profound influence on renal tubular function, and may result in reduced renal concentrating capacity and increased urine volumes. more important, long-term lithium administration at non-toxic serum levels has little demonstrable or no effect at all on glomerular function. prospective studies found no e ... | 2011 | 3147581 |
| bonding of restorative materials to dentine. | the potential advantages of bonding a filling material to dentine have long been recognized by the dental profession. such bonding would prevent recurrent decay and would provide a long-lasting restoration. bonding of suitable filling materials to enamel can be easily accomplished by first etching the enamel with acid. this opens up areas in the enamel and permits filling materials to flow into the openings and form mechanical locks. it is not possible to do this with dentine since the acid used ... | 2011 | 3160665 |

| aspects of brazilian paediatric nephrology. | brazil is a large country with different population densities in its five geographical regions, each of which has severe but unevenly distributed socioeconomic problems which affect the health care system. this makes the accurate assessment of renal disease in the large paediatric population which comprises 40% of the total population especially difficult. this paper analyses the experience of one paediatric nephrology unit. urinary tract infection affecting 44% of the patients was the most comm ... | 2011 | 3153022 |
| a multivariate approach for classifying hospitals and computing blended payment rates. | prospective payment for inpatient hospital care is based on the ideal that hospitals that produce similar outputs, as measured by the types of cases the hospital treats, should be paid similar prices. however, similar output is a multidimensional concept. thus operationalization of this ideal will ultimately require a more complex framework for determining hospital payment rates than currently employed at either the federal or state level. this article illustrates a multidimensional approach to ... | 2011 | 3083160 |

| intestinal ion and nutrient transport in health and infectious diarrhoeal diseases. | absorption of water from the intestine occurs in response to the osmotic gradient as a passive consequence of the active transfer of solutes (nutrients and electrolytes, with na absorption playing a key role) from the intestinal lumen to the serosal side. during intestinal infections, several possible derangements of such a situation may occur, ultimately leading to the shift of net water absorption to secretion and, thus, to diarrhoea. in rotaviral diarrhoea, the mature enterocytes are invaded ... | 2011 | 3069442 |

| major depressive disorder and panic disorder. effects of comorbidity on treatment outcome with antidepressant medications. | recent studies suggest that major depressive disorder (mdd) and panic disorder (pd) may coexist in a significant number of patients. the relevance of this association may be such that patients with the simultaneous diagnosis are at risk for more severe psychopathology and poorer treatment outcome. to explore this possibility further, we compared treatment outcome of two groups of patients: one with comorbidity of mdd and pd (n = 19) and another with mdd only (n = 22). patients with comorbidity o ... | 2011 | 3219677 |

| the role of the t-cell receptor in thymocyte maturation: effects in vivo of anti-receptor antibody. | the t-cell receptor, which recognizes antigen plus a product of the major histocompatibility complex, has been postulated to drive t-cell maturation in the thymus by engaging major histocompatibility complex proteins expressed on thymic stromal cells. we tested this idea by injecting neonatal animals with an anti-receptor antibody, kj16, that binds to about 20% of t cells and is capable of blocking receptor function. in the presence of this antibody, mature t cells bearing the kj16 epitope faile ... | 2011 | 3095843 |
| segmental portal hypertension. | isolated obstruction of the splenic vein leads to segmental portal hypertension, which is a rare form of extrahepatic portal hypertension, but it is important to diagnose, since it can be cured by splenectomy. in a review of the english literature, 209 patients with isolated splenic vein obstruction were found. pancreatitis caused 65% of the cases and pancreatic neoplasms 18%, whereas the rest was caused by various other diseases. seventy-two per cent of the patients bled from gastroesophageal v ... | 2011 | 3729585 |
